Case No. 23-cv-646-RJD-DWD
MEMORANDUM & ORDER
DUGAN, District Judge:
This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) of
United States Magistrate Judge Reona J. Daly, recommending that Plaintiff’s case be
dismissed with prejudice for failure to comply with Magistrate Judge Daly’s orders to file
an amended complaint and failure to respond to a Show Cause Order (Doc. 13). The R&R
was entered on January 30, 2024. No objections have been filed. For the reasons stated
below, the Court ADOPTS the R&R.
Where neither timely nor specific objections to the R&R are made, this Court need
not conduct a de novo review. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Instead, the Court
should review the R&R for clear error. Johnson v. Zema Systems Corp., 170 F.3d 734, 739
(7th Cir. 1999). The Court may then “accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the
findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
The Court has carefully reviewed Judge Daly’s Report and Recommendation.
Plaintiff’s Complaint was dismissed without prejudice as being time-barred. Plaintiff was
granted leave to file an amended complaint on or before September 17, 2023, to allege a
cause of action not barred by the statute of limitations. (Doc. 9). By October 11, 2023,
Plaintiff had not filed an amended complaint, and Magistrate Judge Daly entered an
Order to Show Cause, ordering Plaintiff to explain why this matter should not be
dismissed for failure to prosecute. (Doc. 10). Plaintiff was warned that his failure to
comply would result in this matter being dismissed with prejudice. Plaintiff did not
comply with the Show Cause Order.
Considering the applicable law and the record before the Court, the undersigned
agrees with Magistrate Judge Daly’s conclusion that Plaintiff’s action should be
dismissed with prejudice for failure to prosecute an action and to comply with court
orders. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge
Daly’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 13).
This matter is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. The Court DIRECTS the Clerk
to close the case and to enter judgment accordingly.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: March 26, 2024
